    At least Dipo didn't tell Miami Heat or Rockets to pull out the Brinks truck only to get a min deal on his next contract

    With the same price, I will definitely choose CP3 over him.

    nm...weird wording by Shams. Makes it sound like Toronto didn’t sign him in a SnT.

    “New Orleans was willing to go to $90 million over three years or more, according to a source, but Lowry never leaned toward going there, according to the source,” wrote Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald. “Lowry took three years and $85 million from Miami.”

    But, but, but, being a small market team has nothing to do why players don't go there, and you just need to be a well managed team to attract talents...

    Goran Dragic was mistranslated. It's a non-issue.

    I was scared when Rockets Org (out of politeness?) offered that extension mid year. Most folks on this board saw that he was washed. What seemed obvious I guess traveled slowly to the org. But then relieved when Home-Dipo quickly turned it down. Maybe Stone knew he was going to turn it down, so offered it anyhow.

    A bullet dodged, would have been a toxic asset.

    Oh ok, for a minute there, I thought Goran was also becoming a socialite. :D

    The thing that irks me about this whole situation is that Dragic has been mentioned repeatedly but not a peep about Dynex.

    Lots of old guys getting massive contracts.

    Good for them, but man....is it good for the league?
